[Re-ANN] iCoin - Democratic Coin Under New Management

[LordPiccolo]

Many thanks for setting that up, lets get some people over there

@LordPiccolo,

    They had some pretty good hash going on for several hours tonight -- and were definitely approximately 2/3 of the total Network hash rate.

    I saw the difficulty go above 5.0 for a while.
    KGW kicked it down to ~3.7 after about 100Mhash/sec dropped from the DiabloPool.

    Now its time to add a second or third pool to keep things from becoming centralized.

    Has anybody ran an instance of CoiniumServ?
    https://github.com/int6/CoiniumServ

    Although NOMP is pretty easy to get setup and going, it unfortunately remains Unsupported as development has stopped upstream.

Kind Regards,
-Chicago

Im in contact with minerpools later today so we will have another pool hopefully.

You seem to know the ins and outs about networks Chicago, are you able to help us move forward?

Hello,

    Yes, I can contribute in one way or another.
    sinpey and ThePeePs have been idling in #iCoin with me on Freenode.

    We're still waiting for prospective developers to join us there for a quorum of 6 before moving ahead with a transitional wallet update to include recent checkpoints and links to whatever new website is created by the community.

    It would appear from a developer prospective, the immediate needs are a checkpoint, a DNS seed, a Testnet and then eventually to rebase.

Kind Regards,

If there are any issues at all, please let me know. I'll do my best to make sure that DiabloPool is the best pool possible.

On an unrelated note, No exchange will list us without a block explorer, so I set one up at http://icoin.diablopool.com.

Thank you DiabloPool, this coin is finally going somewhere

I am now renting my signature space for BTC. My earnings will be donated to ICN's BTC fund since we need BTC for several projects. If you would like to do the same, here is the link https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=425135.0

can you create a list of how much BTC we need and for what projects

I would like to
-get some games together
-get listed on an exchange
-buy ad space for iCoin on non crypto-sites

I do not know exact amounts but I know that nobody is accepting iCoin currently.

I have contacted the guys at EmpoEX to see if we can get listed there.

As in games, do you mean like dice games? poker games?

iCoin as the name is extremely Brandable so that would work very well.

Apparently, there was a Wheel of Fortune game at one point for iCoin.

If someone in the community can point me to the code for any games -- I'll install an instance of them and we can run with it for a while using Testnet money to see how it works.

A dice game like doge-dice.com would be perfect. It is easily marketable, so I would like to get the word out but first we will need to build up the coin some more

Does anyone actually play these games or are they just a faff? I have never played any of them myself

Actually, I've been working on some code for some casino games. My code isn't near finished yet, but I'm working on it.

Been kind of busy today trying to keep my house from floating away. A water pipe burst under the house and I've been working on that for much of today. I had so much water under the house that I thought I was going to have to put the house on pontoons.

Sounds like a similar experience I had. A water pipe had cracked under the floor which was solid concrete and it was breaking the floor away. Didn't even realise it was there until the floor gave way ha!

Right, if you can let us know when your code is finished, we'll happily test it for you

Do you guys think it would be an advantage to going POS/POW and reducing the total coins?

Or is the plan to leave things as they are?

That is a new coin called iCoin, not iCoin.

The advantage of the current iCoin, besides the name obviously, is that it has been distributed and there is no pre-mine left.. there are for sure many coins which don't even "exist" anymore because once things went south people many people probably left whatever they had of iCoin in the exchanges, and then the exchanges closed.

Reducing the total coins is also not a good thing since it would virtually add value to the current holders and as such there would be not real advantages for new users to join.

Changing from POW to POW+POS is on the other hand something with I don't dislike as long as the total number of coins doesn't change.

But, it is just one's opinion.
